This is Great! I had just jotted down the directions, and failed to completely melt the white sugar, so the finished product had sugar crystal balls in it. I simply strained it though a mesh strainer. It was wonderful. I'll definitely make it many more times. Hard to believe only three people have reviewed this tasty sauce!
